Being a District Councillor is not easy and often difficult decisions have to be made. This Conservative administration has had the unenviable task of meeting needs while managing a declining budget. All things considered it is doing an amazing job. Unemployment is down, housing building is up, recycling rates are up, use of landfill is down, the Council has bought housing for the first time in a long time to address those in need of temporary housing, Government money has been lobbied for and is flowing into North Devon like never before, the Anchorwood Bank development is moving along nicely, a new Leisure Centre is on the way, Ilfracombe Watersports Centre is on the way.

There are many more great things that this Council is doing but there is more to do. There is always more to do. That's why we need your help. You may not be a member of the Conservative Party but support the party and understand the difficult job that our Councillors have to do on a local level.

If you would like to be involved and shape your North Devon, continue the good work being done under difficult circumstances or would like to champion your own project. Get in touch. The District elections are not till May 2019 but it is never too early to get involved and get started. We are already starting to select candidates
